Flag Star Football describes its mission as an eco-system where kids can Get Better and Have Fun. The program includes K–12th graders, with boys and girls of all experience levels welcome, and offers Girls-Only sessions for 3rd–8th graders. Most camps are open to rising 2nd–7th graders, with select sites offering focused groups for 2nd–5th graders and for 6th–9th graders, referred to as “Old Dawgs.” The ‘Elite’ league is for rising 4th–10th graders.
The program describes itself as Washington, DC’s Top Youth Flag Football Program and notes that it has 300 leaders and coaches aligned with its mission. Flag Star Football highlights positive coaches who love teaching, supportive parents, and compassionate referees, and describes its leagues as low-pressure environments where kids can just play, whether a child is an all-star or new to flag football.
Flag Star Football is run in conjunction with the Flag Star Football Foundation and The Next Game Project LLC, which state that they work together to provide sustainable, impactful programming to kids throughout the DMV and to provide all young athletes the opportunity to play, learn, and grow. The organization reports 11 locations where kids can play flag football, 1,060 girls enrolled, and 2,845 scholarships provided in 2025. It states that it has turned away 0 kids due to money and that “EVERY KID DESERVES A CHANCE TO PLAY That's our policy. As long as we're around, we'll never turn a kid away.”
The Commissioner, Carl Ehrlich, captained the Harvard Football team and played “professional” football in Valencia, Spain.
Parent testimonials describe the league as organized and well-managed, with coaching that has taught their children a lot and an emphasis on fun. One parent states that Flag Star has exceeded their expectations, another calls it the highlight of their sports schedule with positive energy and great coaching, and another notes “Great people, great sport, great energy! I cannot say enough good things.”
